File Your Confirmation Statement with Xact+ Accountants
Frequently Asked Questions:
All UK-registered companies, including dormant and non-trading entities, must file a Confirmation Statement at least once every 12 months. This obligation ensures that the public register reflects current and accurate company information.
The Confirmation Statement includes:
- Company name and registration number
- Registered office address
- Details of directors and company secretary
- Statement of capital and shareholder information
- Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code
- Register of people with significant control (PSCs)
From 5 March 2024, companies must also provide a registered email address and confirm that their intended future activities are lawful.
The Confirmation Statement is due annually, 12 months after either the date of incorporation or the date of the last filed Confirmation Statement. Companies have a 14-day period from the end of this 12-month review period to submit their statement.
A Confirmation Statement is an annual submission to Companies House that verifies the accuracy of a company’s registered information, including details about directors, shareholders, registered office address, and people with significant control (PSCs). This process replaced the Annual Return in June 2016.
Companies can file their Confirmation Statement online or by post. The fee is £34 for online submissions and £62 for postal filings. This fee is payable once per year, regardless of the number of Confirmation Statements filed within that period.
Failure to file the Confirmation Statement within the specified timeframe is a criminal offence. Directors or designated members may face prosecution, financial penalties, and the company could be struck off the Companies House register.
